I am not high maintenance, so if you are looking for someone who gets "dolled-up" EVERY day I am not the one for you. I am a teacher, so I have the summers off. I do not get to travel since I have a 12 year-old son. A lot gets sacrificed when you have a child, but it is well worth it. I also have two dogs. I enjoy time on the beach, hanging out with friends and family. I like to do projects around the house myself, so I am handy. I play coed softball during the spring/summer and sometimes in the fall.

I don't have any drama, so if you are looking for that then I'm not your gal.

What I’m doing with my life

I teach full time during the school year and the rest of my time is devoted to raising my son. I know, it doesn't sound very exciting. Guess I'm kind of stuck in a routine at the moment.

I’m really good at

Listening. I like to think I'm good at sports and teaching. Showing my affection towards my loved one. Kind of a hopeless romantic myself.

The first things people usually notice about me

I think I would have to ask them ... hopefully it is my eyes. I have really nice blue eyes if I do say so myself.

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food

I like Nicholas Sparks books.I enjoy all kinds of movies and music. Not too picky there.I root for the home teams: Red Sox, Patriots, Bruins, and Celtics.

Other interests...watching pro sports (live), coed softball, shooting pool, playing poker, soccer, watching reality shows, want to be more fit (gym time coming), concerts, hanging out with the girls, working in the yard vs in the house, my own home improvements, family time, beach time!, iggys, goal is to going hiking more when school gets out, cake decorating, sometimes cooking, not reading ... unless I'm on the beach, I have two dogs, wiffle ball, and so much more...

Six things I could never do without

My family (#1 my son)My friendsCell phoneDD coffeeHaving a jobLove my dogs, especially when alone, they are always happy to see me.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

I spend some time thinking about how I could be healthier. What new house project needs to be done. Who will send me a message next (if any) from okcupid.

On a typical Friday night I am

Relaxing at home, or getting drinks with co-workers.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit

Check back later.
